Daytona 4X4 Project

[nascarxx29]

Any pictures of the challenger wagon wearing a superbird nose.Thats sounds neat .I have a magazine I think it was motor trend where they showed artist renderings all what certain cars would look like as a station wagons.It had the challenger trans am etc in it .I rembered seeing the station wagon conversion offered by Ecklers corvette catalog for the corvette .But for no other car.I used to wonder why no one took a 4 door and did a superbird 4dr or stretch limo.Or put a charger front clip on a b body wagon.There was been wagons converted to 2 doors.But no wagon trimmed down to a elcamino with a wing over the tail gate and unique front end.Maybe dayclona will cross this line and build some cool customs down the line

How about a 'bird wagon?  Put a 'bird front end on a 70 satellite wagon, get one of those fiberglass wings, cut it down to about 6' tall, and put it on the back of the wagon, after eliminating the luggage rack.

Or a Daytona pickup?  Oh wait, Dodge already did that. 

Never mind.

we use to put those olds vista cruiser roof on vans in the 70's before they had raised roofs for vans . Rene

Never mind.

My punishment for not starting on my wife's bird clone fast enough was having to buy her a new Dodge Daytona pickup. She had to have something with a wing on it.

I'm not sure that would qualify around my place.  Then again, she may prefer a new truck to an old wing car.

As a somewhat related aside, do those new Daytona pickups come in a 4X4?

80's Nissan Pulsar NX's had a factory wagon back option instead of the rear hatchback.

Here is the car when I bought it with the nose on it. I have thought about the other project you talked about like I had a nice 70 sat 4dr body one time and I cut the center out of another one and going to make a limo. but people needed to many of the parts off it so I junked it. here is the aspen wagon I made into a 2dr panel truck ? and here is a Super Bee wagon I made 1 time sold now but I did think about a nose on it but too much $

Here is a Elcamino New port I was working on just havent had time to finish and may never  It is for sale if someone else wanted to finish?

     Quite the collecton sunroofsuperbird, I personally always wanted to build an old dodge van from the 60's into a 4x4. I drove my dads old 61 econoline for years, the turning radius is amazing. These old vans would make excellent construction vehicles, my 97 ram ext. cab  long box needs 40 acres to turn.

in the elcaminoyorker.. is the back window area grafter off of an A body like a dart? or is it actually an el camino back?

Here is a suggestion for your next project...if you ever run out of projects that is!

[472 R/T SE]

The other challenger wagon believe it or not is a real R/T also 340 car just has flat hood on it now. it has been done many years also. I don't care for it as much as the back of that car has been cut off and a Monaco wagon rear clip was added just to wide for car and I don't think it fits right. I have heard it was sold a few years ago and was being restored back orig now  I would still have left it as is because it is very different and has been that way forever. at least if they change it back it will make mine 1 of 1 instead of 1 of 2 and make it worth alot more at Barrett jackson   

Definitely unique perspective sunroof.  I can appreciate anyone's hard work.  I'd never be able to get in and out of them.

Hate to nitpick, but there were no JS coded 340 Challenger R/T's in '70.  I wish cause that would make mine one.    '71 is the only year for R/T 340 Challengers.

Back in the 70s there was an outfit that turned two door Cadillacs into elcaminos. Not sure but I think it was about 1975  and they did a couple hundred of them. They looked pretty decent it wasn't a half-assed  job.
